Parametric and Generative design are transforming Mechanical Engineering Introduction: The Design Revolution Modern mechanical design is powered by tools that go far beyond static drafting. Parametric and generative design empower engineers to create adaptable, intelligent, and efficient products quickly—reshaping everything from automotive parts to industrial machinery. What is Parametric Design? Parametric design uses parameters (such as dimensions, material properties, and geometric relationships) to control and automate the creation of engineering models. By tweaking these variables, students can instantly update their design and explore multiple variants. All modifications are rule-based, so changing one input (like a hole diameter) updates related features across the model. Engineers maintain direct control over the model structure and iteration, promoting rapid customization. Widely used for gears, brackets, housings, and modular assemblies, parametric modeling is integral...
